- 1-1/2 Cups banana mashed, very ripe bananas
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 2 teaspoon baking powder
- ¾ Cup sugar
- 1-1/2 Cup flour all-purpose or cake flour works equally well
Icing and Filling Ingredients:
- 8 ounce cream cheese room temperature
- 4 ounce butter room temperature
- 1 teaspoon banana extract can substitute vanilla extract if desired
- 4 Cup powdered sugar
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees
- Line 24 count cupcake pan with paper liners
- Cream butter with electric mixer on medium speed until fluffy
- Add egg yolks, one at a time, mixing after each addition
- Add bananas and extract/extracts and mix well
- Whip egg whites until stiff peaks form.
- Fold ½ of whipped egg whites into wet mixture.
- Combine dry ingredients in a separate bowl.
- Add dry ingredients to wet ingredients and mix until blended.
- Add remaining ½ whipped egg whites and fold in.
- Bake on center rack of oven for approximately 12 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in center comes out clean (or at least mostly clean)

Instructions for Icing:

- Remove core from center of each cupcake, using an apple corer or small spoon, going about 2/3 of the way to the bottom of the cupcakes.
- Spoon or pipe icing into the hole in center of each cupcake
- Spread icing on tops of each cupcake or pipe on. I used a Wilton #1M. #2A works well also.
